The code doesn't lie, that's what PHP is seeing.

There is no attachment to the reminders.

>    The reason: in the message source, the lines are delimited with
>    LF (hex 0A) characters, in contrast to RFC 2822, section 2.1
>    <http://rfc-ref.org/RFC-TEXTS/2822/chapter2.html#sub1> which says:
>> A line [...] is delimited with the two characters carriage-return
>> and line-feed; that is, the carriage return (CR) character (ASCII
>>  value 13) followed immediately by the line feed (LF) character
>> (ASCII value 10).

You could try upgrading to Kronolith 2.1.
